Summer 2018
Welcome back! We hope everyone had a lovely Easter break.
This half term our theme is 'Where My Wellies Take Me'. We have once again enjoyed using the 'floorbox' approach to plan our learning. We have looked at some of the poems in the book, 'Where My Wellies Take Me' and used some of the poems to help with our writing. We have followed the children's current interest in frogs and spent a week exploring life cycles, exploring how to mix colours and creating our own frogs and writing information leaflets. We have also enjoyed another story,'The Very Hungry Caterpillar'. In Forest school we made butterflies using plants and flowers and used different fruits to help our calculations. We wonder where our learning will take us next...
